Hi everyone!
On most forums there is a section that allows you to introduce yourself, my one cup of coffee mind this morning couldn't find it here, so I figured the best place would be this section of the forum.
My name is Ryan. I am 28 years old. I live in Northern Ontario in Canada.
I was an analog cigarette smoker starting at the age of 15. I started vaping with an e-cigarette just 7 days ago. When I switched, I was smoking 25+ analog cigarettes a day. I have Crohn's disease and smoking is implicated in worsening of symptoms so this was a major reason for me to switch to an e-cig. As well, I am switching for financial reasons.
My E-Cig setup is the T-Rex E-Cig. I picked this model because of it's great battery life, it's sound construction, and it's overall look.
I bought two e-liquids in the high strength of Nicotine. I find the amount of Nicotine prevents withdrawal. The flavours I chose are both tobacco flavours (Camel and Marlboro) and I'd say they somewhat simulate these flavours. I never thought I would say it, but I'm looking forward to trying some e-liquids with fun flavours like candy apple and coconut. I think that would be really neat!
So far I've been using a 510 atomizer and cartridge most of the week. I find this works well. The only thing I find is that I have to refill my cartridge quite frequently to get the vape and the flavour I want. I have been swapping out two different atomizers every day and doing overnight cleaning of them.
I've just started trying out a cartomizer. It was a real mess to fill but I do find that the throat hit is a bit more consistent. One doesn't have to draw as much on a cartomizer I find. I am not sure how long the fill of e-liquid will last me in the cartomizer and if I will have to suffer with endlessly refilling.
Overall, from what I've read and seen on the net, I have a feeling I will really enjoy direct dripping. I have a drip tip, just haven't used it yet. I think it will be my 'at home' preference. For when I go out, I could see either atty and cart or cartomizer being the better option.
So I've felt good using the E-Cig. I've had less than 10 analog cigarettes since making the switch a week ago. I kind of 'caved' when I had to reformat my computer (lots of stress). I found that when I smoked an analog there were times where the taste just felt really dirty and undesirable, also I got a very sore throat from an analog session.
I see great potential in my switching.
I am glad to be part of this forum and I hope to make some friends and learn from you all.
Sincerely,
Ryan
